Town of Watertown woman injured in Hounsfield motorcycle crash

A town of Watertown woman was injured in a motorcycle crash at 1:32 p.m. Sunday on Old Rome State Road in the town of Hounsfield.

Jefferson County sheriffs deputies said Tina M. Lamon, 43, of 20604 County Route 63, failed to negotiate a curve on a 2012 Honda motorcycle because of operator inexperience and went off the right side of the road into a ditch.

Ejected from the motorcycle, she suffered severe bleeding from the shoulder or upper arm and was taken by ambulance to Samaritan Medical Center for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, according to deputies.

She holds a motorcycle learners permit and was riding next to a licensed motorcyclist, Roswell P. Steele, Adams Center.
